First off, please use paragraphs to separate each question, your questions are very hard to read all lumped together.
Have you created the partitions, mounted them, and changed to the mount point before extracting the stage tarball? The order MUST be: | Code: | [USE FDISK TO CREATE PARTITIONS]
mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/gentoo
mkdir /mnt/gentoo/boot
mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/gentoo/boot
cd /mnt/gentoo |
COPY OVER / DOWNLOAD STAGE TARBALL AND PORTAGE TARBALL AT THIS POINT THEN...
| Code: | tar xvjpf [STAGE TARBALL NAME]
tar xvjf [PORTAGE TARBALL NAME] -C /mnt/gentoo/usr |
